Steam the tempeh for 10 minutes to get rid of its bitterness.
While this is steaming, prepare the marinade and russian dressing in separate bowls and set aside (make sure the marinade bowl will be big enough to hold the tempeh as well.)
Once the tempeh is steamed (and has cooled a bit) slice into strips and add to the marinade. Ideally, marinate overnight (if time permits) or for at least 2 hours.
To prepare the tempeh, pan fry in a bit of oil until brown (reserving marinade) and then once browned, add the marinade to the pan and cook until it has reduced to a nice thick sauce.
To make the sandwiches, butter your bread and place in the pan (off the heat.) Then add your vegan cheese, tempeh, sauerkraut and slather the other piece of bread with russian dressing. Then butter the top of that once you’ve placed it on the sandwiches.
Cook over medium heat until the bread is nice and toasted. Enjoy!!!
